    I finally finished this 54 mm figure of a trooper of the WWI German Cavalry. I'm 79, so be kind when you look at it! :)

    Hi Nick

    Great to see you painting and a interesting subject , like the uniform colour on him , looks good on the horse colour as well

    Isn't this the Andrea release from a long time ago

    Thanks for sharing

    Great paintwork by all standards, but once you mentioned your age, it is even more amazing, looks like you are the Mick Jagger of the hobby!

    Nothing wrong with your painting Nick, obviously your eyes are still performing well for you judging by the results.

    Thank you to everyone who liked and commented on the figure! It is an old Andrea metal figure. Not very tech savy to reply to each of you, so hope you see this! Take care and be safe!

    That looks fine to me. Practice makes perfect, eh?

    Incidentally, it appears that resin "garage kit" copies from China are available on Ebay - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/xxxxxxxxxxx (it was shown in the "Similar sponsored items" panel on an Airfix 54mm figure I was viewing) - should that be brought to the attention of Andrea and/or Ebay?


    NOTE EBay link detailed removed as per PF Policy ...Nap
